i dont get offended at white people jokes even though im white because:
i can recognize white people as a whole have systemically oppressed POC in america, which is where i live
most people when they make white people jokes only mean the shitty white people and i am not a shitty white person
im not a pissbaby
they have my heart
what is your fav thing about joon?
how he’s super respectful and always wants to shake people’s hands even though they don’t always reciprocate, and how he refers to people as sir/maam
he once said ‘i like peace, my favourite bird is the pigeon’ but he’s an idiot and he meant dove
going off number 2, alternatingly, how he got pigeon and dove confused but calls fruitflies by their scientific name aka drosophila
how he thinks about love inclusively, not just the romantic kind but the friendship and familiar kind too
how he released mono because he wanted to be a source of comfort for all his fans and give them a hug even if he cant physically do it
how he said ‘mono’ means monster no more, meaning he’s let go of all that pent up rage and anger and all the negativity he had while being a teenager and how he’s found peace within himself, and how he’s grown emotionally and mentally and no longer feels angry at the world
how to spoke openly about going to therapy and getting help when you need it
how he speaks softly a lot of the time, and when he pauses and its almost like you can see his brain working, see him thinking and he’s completely beautiful
how his voice is low, and deep, and silky smooth, and how when i hear it its that feeling of drinking hot chocolate on a chilly day, just something so comforting
how he prefers sunset to sunrise (just like me) but how he likes being out at dawn when everyone else is asleep (again like me)
how he wrote moonchild for the people who feel most happy at night, for those who felt like ‘they can’t breathe during the day’ and how he believes the night sets him free
how he enjoys just,, being, in nature - going on walks, taking bike rides with jimin down han river
how he looks when he has no make up on and his hair is falling in front of his eyes and he just looks so soft and adorable
how he likes using filters on his vlive, especially the really cute ones and how i will deadass fight that fan who told him to stop using them because on god he deserves happiness in the little things and if filters make him happy then you BET he should use them
how his entire face lights up when he’s happy, and the way it scrunches when he sees things that are cute
how he’s so big and yet so gentle with everything - the way he picks up crabs, and frogs, and any small creatures - but he handles them with utmost care because he knows his strength and he would never willingly hurt any living creature
how he likes ryan from kkt and has a bunch of merch but freely admits he prefers brown from line jfsjfjsjfjd and how he has a collection of both of those as well as K.A.W.S. like he’s really just an adorable little nerd
how sometimes when he laughs he buries his face into his hand or his shoulders, and how sometimes his eyes are wide and his mouth is open and you can see his tongue
how he dressed up like an astronaut for the 2018 MAMA performance and did his little move and then fell on the ground in the most cUTEST way possible - and then his legs were all stretched out but he stayed on the ground
how he can be hella petty - like when he admitted his sister pissed him off one day and before they were going to school, it was raining, and he took all the umbrellas in the house so she’d have to walk to school in the rain
how when he was younger his dream was to be a security guard because it shows just how sweet he is and how much he wants to protect people, and how he does it every day just by being him and encouraging people to continue on even if they’re struggling
how much he loves his mother
how he gets annoyed with rap mon for not remembering who he is even thought monie is named after him
how even though he’s not a major vocalist, his husky, low-toned voice sounds so beautiful and calming
how he sings in the shower but gets clowned for it
how when he gets excited he physically can’t contain himself and runs around with a little bounce and the happiest expression
alternatively, how sometimes he just bounces in place instead of running around
how frustrated he gets when people aren’t listening to him and he throws a soft tantrum
how quick his mind works and how unbelievably intelligent he is
how he’s big but his sneezes are soft and quiet, and his face scrunches up and then his entire head shakes
how sweet he looks when he’s sleeping, all nestled in the covers and his cheeks full
how he has a mole on his neck just below his jaw
how clumsy he is and how easily he breaks things as if he doesn’t know his own strength
how he takes care of the members as much as he can, but how he equally needs to be taken care of
how he is a hazard to himself and is so smart yet doesn’t know basic things like how to use a knife or to NOT touch boiling pasta
how he’s so big but if he curls up into himself he looks so small
the way his nose wrinkles when he’s confused
that stupid ahahAHAHAHA laugh he does
the fact that he grows bonsai and has named them - ‘cherry blossom baby’ ‘jjin jjin’ ‘cherry’ and ‘orihime’ who he calls ori as a nickname and that he also talks to them
how he said he will wear whatever - regardless of ‘gender’ stereotypes
how he’ll sit on the side and simply watch the rest of bangtan with the proudest, sappiest smile because he knows they’re happy and because they’re his entire happiness
how he does aegyo and then immediately gets shy afterwards
how gentle and delicate his features are, and yet so unbelievably handsome and sexy he is at the same time
how he’s the gentlest giant to ever exist
how he lets bangtan do whatever they want to him - like wipe cake onto his face, or squish his cheeks, and he accepts it all with the patience of a saint
how he gives love freely and loves freely but never asks for anything in return even though he deserves it and everything
how he has a sweet tooth, and eats spoonfuls of sugar, and how he believes that even when the world ends people who make cotton candy should continue existing
how humble he is, despite being in the biggest boy group in the world, but how he never fails to thank the staff, the people who work with them, their dancers, the stage crew, the directing crew or whatever
how he can’t take a compliment without getting incredibly shy
how he learned to love himself over the years
how he’s so willing to let people use him for them to learn to love themselves
how he made me fall in love with the world again, and it’s beauty, and reminded me that there is good in the world
how he is my source of strength and happiness
how his words and existence bring me comfort
how he saved my life
and a whole bunch of other reasons that i cannot remember because i’m crying
POSTING THIS AGAIN!!!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!!!
Hi 👋, My name is Mohammad, and I’m reaching out in a moment of desperate need. I’m a father of three young children living in Gaza, and we are caught in the midst of a catastrophic war. Our home is no longer a safe haven, and the future here seems increasingly uncertain. 💔
I’ve launched a fundraising campaign with the goal of raising $40,000 to relocate my family to a safer place where my children can grow up in peace and have a chance at a brighter future. 🕊️🇵🇸
Unfortunately, my previous fundraising efforts were abruptly halted when my account was terminated without explanation. However, I remain determined to keep fighting for my family’s safety and well-being. 🫶
If you could take a moment to read our story, consider donating, or simply share our campaign with others, it would make an incredible difference. Every act of kindness, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to safety and a new beginning. 🙏
Thank you for your time, compassion, and support. ❤

Please help if you can!
Despite the fancy survey, changes to the UI and TOS reveal we’re getting the service in the future whether we want it or not. Obviously, Post+ is a terrible idea that is trying to bank revenue on user content. Unlike patreon or onlyfans, tumblr’s primary focus is on FAN content. The legality of this is NOT in the users favor and as the new tumblr TOS states, said users will be entirely liable for whatever legal matters arise.
Besides filling out the survey, it’s time to show tumblr we mean business and show our displeasure by hitting them where it hurts.
Ad revenue.
We’re proposing a 24 hour log off as phase one of this protest.

Maybe, maybe not. It’s an attempt at doing SOMETHING.
the idea that being closeted is being a liar is a heterosexual propaganda that hates queer people protecting themselves. you don't have to come out if you're not safe.
Hello! As someone that dumpster dives year-round and usually finds a SHIT TON of perfectly usable items thrown away after the holidays, please listen:
Christmas is over and now comes along the weeks of people returning and exchanging unwanted gifts at retailers. A lot of these stores cannot actaully put a lot of these items back out on the shelf, (especially seasonal items or holiday themed) for one reason or another. Returned brand new items end up in landfills.
This is not only horribly wasteful when good items could be used by people in need, but also insanely bad for the enviroment.
So please consider:
Did you get insane amounts of those fluffy socks because they're like a default gift option? Donate your excess to a homeless or domestic violence saftey shelter.
Did you recieve a gift that is pretty much a jab to your identity from that estranged family member of yours that still doesn't use the correct pronouns for you? Oh, and they wont give you or 'lost' the receipt? Donate it.
Recieved those oddly named holiday themed lotions, perfumes and candles and can't stand the smell of them? These items most usually will not be put back on the shelf if returned and thrown away. Donate them. (Some charities may not accept them, some will. Check beforehand.)
Did you get one of those holiday throw blankets that are marketed just for this time of the year even though you already have several? Donate it.
I find tons of holiday themed clothing thrown away this time of year. Including ugly sweaters, hats/beanies, gloves, onesies, shoes, socks, ect. Perfectly fine items that are returned because people don't keep holiday themed stuff outside of holiday season. Regardless, they could be used by people who need warm clothing.
Electronics are not safe either. Perfectly working Items I have found in dumpsters in the past range from: a $300 roomba with the ticket saying it was returned because the customer didn't know how to work it (needed an app to control), not one but TWO tablets (Samsung and Kindle Fire) a working bluetooth speaker, ect. (Items that can not be donated I gave away.)
If you are not going to regift unwanted gifts and you are certain you are not going to use it, please consider donating it (or make a post and just give it away or sell the thing yourself.) You can go get $15 worth of store credit if you return the thing, but it's usually going straight to the trash afterwards.
Unfortunatly, stores like to try and destroy items they throw away as well. On lucky days, I find items that are still in their original package. Other times I find perfectly usuable items destroyed by spray paint or box cutters.
(ALSO this is not a post shaming people who return gifts for money to pay bills/buy food/basically survive. That is a completely different situation.)
Please research the places you donate to before doing so. Do not donate to the Salvation Army (despite them trying to do reputation control, they're still blatantly anti-LGBTQ) If you are a dumpster diver, remember to sanitize the items you find and let the organizations know where you recieved the items.
That's it. Thanks for coming to my soapbox!
Sorry to be an ugly fun-killer but in light of the recent Invasion I urge you all to be mindful of the things you reblog and the memes that you repost. Please remember that behind every "world war 3 lmao" post there is a reality where real people are going to be displaced from their homes and are going to lose their lives.
Before you laugh at that tweet that talks about the draft or whatever ask yourself: are you laughing because it's funny? or are you laughing because you're safe and comfortable in the West and it's not a direct problem for you?
I know for sure that you can't help all families from Gaza that want to be evacuated from here but at least you can help those who come across your life. You have no idea how mentally and emotionally tiring this is. Asking for help is not easy. But when thinking that the price is my family's life and getting out of here safely, it just pushes me more and more to do this until i reach my goal, be able to attend my university abroad and achieve my doctoral degree dream after awarding prestigious PhD fellowship. Please donate and share to support us standing at this hard time. https://gofund.me/d597b8e2
i don’t have a big blog but i sure as hell am sharing this, i’ll try and figure out how to donate at least something when i get paid, FREE PALASTINE 🇵🇸
